Abstract
The current study aimed to examine the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and to identify its related factors amongst adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This cross-sectional study recruited randomly 519 patients diagnosed with T2DM for at least 6 months in the Family medicine center (FMC) of Agricultural General Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam. The Short Form 36 (SF-36) health survey was used to measure their HRQoL. The female patients had lower physical and mental scores than the male patients. Patients with older age, comorbidity, and insulin treatment were more likely to have lower HRQoL. Meanwhile, educational attainment and having frequent exercise were positively associated with HRQoL.
本研究旨在检查成人2型糖尿病(T2DM)患者的健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)并确定其相关因素。本横断面研究在越南河内农业总医院家庭医学中心(FMC)随机招募519名确诊为2型糖尿病的患者，研究时间至少为6个月。采用SF-36健康问卷(Short Form 36 health survey)测量患者的HRQoL。女性患者的生理和心理得分均低于男性患者。年龄较大、合并症和胰岛素治疗的患者更有可能有较低的HRQoL。同时，受教育程度和经常运动与HRQoL呈正相关。
